The W Singapore - Sentosa Cove debuted on 16th September 2012. Tucked away near the marina on Sentosa Island, it enjoys a peaceful location with sea views, yet is just a short drive from the Central Business District. The hotel features 240 sea and marina facing guest rooms, including four WOW suites and one Extreme WOW suite (W-speak for Presidential Suite).

From ‘Wonderful’ to ‘Extreme WOW’, all rooms and suites feature custom-made furnishings and W’s signature amenities, including ‘Munchie Boxes’ stocked with exclusive amenities, and cutting-edge technology, including mood lighting, 42” LED HD TVs, iPod docking stations and Bose sound systems.

For further relaxation there is a state-of-the art fitness center (GYM), outdoor pool (WET) complete with underwater music and a Spa (AWAY). Culinary options include SKIRT, a steak and seafood grill featuring the Parilla oven and Asador barbecue, and the Kitchen Table, an interactive experience of live cooking stations. The W Lounge provides a stylish and relaxed social space, while WOOBAR is sure to attract the city’s trendsetters. 

The hotel’s contemporary design is the work of New York-based Rockwell Group, known for iconic projects such as the 81st and 82nd Annual Academy Awards in Los Angeles and Nobu restaurants worldwide. Inspired by Singapore’s dynamic cosmopolitan lifestyle mixed with Sentosa’s natural surroundings, Rockwell Group has created a concept befitting W’s cutting-edge style. Guests are welcomed at the hotel entrance by a waterfall featuring moving color projections, while the outdoor terrace boasts glowing grass, rock-shaped daybeds and an over-scaled rock garden.
